On January 11 The Flea hosted a reading of Atomic City by Anson Mount (Hell on Wheels) directed by Leon Ingulsrud (SITI Company) and featuring the BATS. It’s a twisted take on Our Town with a really great creative team behind it and I was honored to assist one of my former teachers of Suzuki/Viewpoints and, well, one of my favorite actors.

On November 20 at 8:30 pm I'll direct a staged reading of Parkour (o un manual para correr en línea recta) by Chilean playwright Eduardo Pavez Goye. The reading is produced by La Micro Theater and the first play I direct in Spanish. For more info, click here.

With 51% of the votes – more than the other two plays combined – Tics or Doing the Deed has aced the first cutthroat duel at The Flea and will be returning for an extended three weeks run in January! It will be a great opportunity to implement all those details we really wanted to see when rehearsal time ran out. Stay tuned!

On September 29 we officially open with Tics, or Doing the Deed by René Berton, a French Grand-Guignol play, as part of the "Gore" trio of the Cutthroat Series at The Flea Theater. Tickets are still available! Come see the show and vote for us!

The Flea is producing a series of Grand Guignol plays in the fall and I will direct Tics, or Doing the Deed by René Berton, a grotesque and sexy farce that stages marital revenge: "an eye for an eye, a hump for a hump." The show, which will include two other short pieces in the same genre, will run from September 23 to October 5. Auditions are next week and I look forward to announcing the full cast by the end of July!

On April 26 I directed a staged reading of Graham Parkes' The Palace, an incredibly accomplished young playwright graduating from NYU Tisch School of the Arts. Four Bats from the Flea Theater made this event memorable and gave life to the words on the page.

PSA, the journal of the Pirandello Society of America has published an enthusiastic review by Samantha Costanzo Burrier of the reading of Pirandello's The Giants of the Mountain I directed in October. You can find it here. In addition, one of the drawings produced during the show has made this issue's cover!
